According to the Sun‘s report on Friday, the bout is just weeks away from being confirmed, with big money being discussed (£7 million for McGregor and an insane £100m for ‘Money’ Mayweather), and contracts are on the verge of being signed.

Whether this was simply another ploy by McGregor to get more money for his next UFC bout, or just a false report, it definitely looks like we’ll be seeing the Irish MMA star competing inside the Octagon and not the boxing ring next time around.
